I'm not a chili maker.

Patty -

I've made lots of chili. Sometimes I'll wash
and sort the beans, other times I'll open a
few cans of beans. You can use pinto, black,
kidney, or small red beans. I think the
key is to serve hot cornbread with it.

On this one, you can use tomato sauce, canned
whole tomatoes or anything in between.

Black Bean Chili with Beef

1/2 pound lean ground beef
1 large onion, diced
2 (15-ounce) cans black beans
1 (28-ounce) can tomato puree
1 (15-ounce) can corn, drained
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Preheat a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Brown beef until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain.
2. Add onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add beans (undrained), tomato purée, corn, chili powder, cumin and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and lower heat; simmer gently for 10 minutes until thoroughly heated.

Makes 6 servings.

That's a pretty good all-around recipe, Susan!

Thanks, It looks almost to easy, not like those long drawn recipes with tons of steps.

I like my chili hot but never buy it that way because the hunny has trouble eating spicy food.

The last time I made chili, I cooked cornbread
dumplings right on top. I'll post the recipe
later.

When I was a kid, we made a recipe similar to that, after we left Taxas & found that you could not get tamales in Georgia (yet).

I've found some good chili recipes on a website called www.RecipesAndEntertaining.com. The California Chili and the Halftime Chili recipes are especially good. Good luck!
